What the heck is a sun truth language, anyways? :)

I'm in the process now, and you're definitely not wrong!

The meanings of the kanji are: sun - origin - language for 日本語

I'm sure you know this, but kanji have different meanings, and this one refers to Japan being the land of the rising sun.

Haha, yeah, I was just being silly and having a little fun. :)

Although, learning all the meanings certainly does get overwhelming at times, especially when combinations of individual kanji characters can have substantially different meanings and readings than they do on their own!

I tried to change my PC and phone language to Japanese yesterday. I did not last long. It's seriously hard.
